1. The GPS is unreliable when out of range of a mobile data signal or accessible WiFi. It nearly always fails to lock. So in rural areas it is often useless (no usable mobile data signal). This may be a software bug but nobody is sure, and anyway Nokia's comments so far (on bug tracker) imply they think people out of range of a mobile data signal are not target users therefore they may not put much effort into investigating or fixing it. 2. Last time I tried to load maps.google.com into the web browser, MicroB, it crashed the browser! It's the only page which has crashed the browser for me. 3. Ovi Maps has a lot of UI problems and bugs - falls below modern standards - but it's basically usable for looking at a map. The routing is not helpful if you have to deviate at all, or if you know a better shortcut for part of it. It does not do turn by turn commands. It sometimes gets confused about where you are even when GPS is working.
